LJP, which was once part of the NDA in Bihar, left the alliance in the state just before the elections, for sharing seats. Throughout the high-voltage campaign in the Bihar elections, LJP has been constantly targeting Nitish Kumar and the JD (U), and Paswan insists that he is very impressed with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and is eager to ‘work with him and the BJP. ‘
The LJP has run candidates in seats where the JD (U) is made up of the NDA, and not the BJP. This has led to speculation that Chirag Paswan’s party is acting at the behest of the BJP to ruin the JDU’s chances.
While the BJP has endeavored to clarify that there is no tension within his alliance with the JD (U) and that Paswan is acting as a ‘Katua vote’, the LJP chief has claimed that the saffron party is simply fulfilling its coalition duties by attacking him.
“I don’t want Prime Minister Narendra Modi to find himself in a dilemma because of me. You should follow the dharma of your coalition. He can say anything against me without any inhibition to satisfy Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, ”he had said last week.
On Sunday, at a Sitamarhi meeting, Paswan promised to build a great temple for the goddess Janki (Sita) if LJP came to power.
